That two-tone Robert Geller coat for men is AWEFUL. I would not wear that if he paid me! YIKES
Seriously, are you talking about Toronto winter? If so, almost none of these jackets will be remotely warm enough, and only two of them are stylish. BLECH this is a terrible post.
“Warm and Stylish” who are you trying to kid! None of these “coats” are remotely warm. And calling them stylish is highly questionable! Better luck next time TL, you’re way off the mark this time.
How about those of us who have a profession that is not “blogger”? Something stylish and professional at the same time, perhaps?
brrrr. those don’t look warm!
